The Mission Park Ability Field

The Ability Field will expand opportunities for recreation and athletics for Spokane's already large (and growing) community of differently abled. I was lucky enough to help local leaders secure funding for this project and it's exciting to know that it's construction officially started.

Designed to be a literal game-changer for the physically challenged athlete, the Mission Park Ability Field will be the first fully adaptive ball field in our service area where current fields do not allow for safe, proper or inclusive play. - Spokanecity.org | Oct. 28th, 2016

Ground Breaking Ceremony

Spokane Mayor David Condon and Spokane City Councilwoman Amber Waldref joined park staff members who worked with the Cal Ripken Sr. Foundation, secured state grants and persuaded local donors to raise a total of about $560,000 to fund the Mission Park Ability Field. - Thomas Clouse, Spokesman Review
